Assumption: 3 steps; initial input 50,500 tokens; growth 2,500 tokens/step; visible output 1,000 tokens/step. Month: 14,600 tasks. No hidden reasoning or retries.

Warm-cache saving: $0.0066 per task. Dashed outline: the no-cache bill.

Assumption: first-step cache fraction 75%; earlier context is read again and new context is written. All calls stay within the cache lifetime.

Formula: sum of input, output, cache reads and cache writes × their published rates / 1M. Each step uses its own context tier. Missing cache or batch prices are Unknown.
